Description

Do you want to create environments for games without creating everything from scratch?

Then I welcome you to Efficient Environment Creation For Games.

About Me:

My name is Arash Aref and I teach 3d game environment art with a love for Lighting And Prop and Material creation. I have had lots of happy students who enjoy learning new techniques.

By the End Of This Course, You Will Be Able To:

Create Environments Efficiently

Re-use What You Have Already Created To Save Time

Learn Primitive Geometry Nodes Setup for Fast Procedural Meshes

Learn Primitive UE5 Blueprint for Fast Iteration

What You Will Learn:

• Translate current day references to old environments
• Kit-Based workflow for fast iteration
• Modular environment creation
• Re-using what you already have to save time and energy in production

Course Project Overview:

We will start with taking a look at our reference board to get an idea, but since our reference board belongs to the current day and our goal is to create an ancient environment; we will use our imagination. Then using the knowledge gained from the references we start the blokcout process to test our ideas to make sure they work. The next step is to start creating the kits and using the existing kits we will create a complete environment. We finish the course by creating a simple water material and lighting and post processing.

Who is This Course For?

The course is for those who want to learn fast environment creation techniques.

The course is also for artists who want to speed up their workflow in environment art.

Who is Not The Ideal Student For This Course?

This course is not designed for absolute Blender beginners.

What Are The Requirements or Prerequisites For Taking This Course?

I expect you to have some prior knowledge in game environment art
